Description

Problem description:

• use the kmp to generate a kar that contains snapshot version
• use the kmp to generate a custom distribution that fills the local repository of the distribution with the content of that kar
• try to install the snapshot artifact (not using any other repository then the system directory
• if your snapshots has been timestamped and a maven metadata XML does not exist on KAR creation the installation of the artifact will fail

The KAR Mojo contains a workaround to use the base version of a snapshot
instead of a timestamped one because it does not work in
startup.properties.
The metadata that is used for a snapshot artifact is generated (if not
present) using the timestamped version. Also if there exists already a
metadata, we can not use them without further checking for the
version...
Let's move the version fix in front of the metadata generation and
generate the metadata for every snapshot.
